This year we began getting reports of feeding humpback whales on Stellwagen Bank in early March!

Typically we head to the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary (only 12 miles from the Gloucester coastline). The proximity of this rich feeding ground, combined with the speed of our vessel and the length of the trip ensure ample viewing times of the whales and other wildlife. On last year's trip we saw lots of young and old familiar whales – Zeppelin, Fulcrum, Seal, Broomball, Whirlygig, Tulip, and many more. They put on a quite a display – flipper slapping, tail breaching, breaching, and open mouth feeding. There also were fin whales, dolphins, and diving gannets. Lots of marine life!
